RAILS                   
                                          
                                          
  
                                          
  
                                          
                                          
 TRAINS  ARE  SO  CONSTRUCTED  THAT  THEY 
 HAVE TO FOLLOW A SET PATH. THIS  PATH IS 
 CALLED A  "RAILWAY", WHICH IS  COMPRISED 
 OF TWO METAL  RAILS, HENCE ITS NICKNAME. 
                                          
 BECAUSE  THE  LOW FRICTION  BETWEEN  THE 
 WHEELS OF  THE TRAIN AND THE RAIL METAL, 
 THERE  ARE LIMITS FOR HOW ACUTE  A CURVE 
 CAN BE, AND  EVEN  MORE SO  FOR HOW MUCH 
 THE  GROUND   UNDER  THE  RAILS  CAN  BE 
 SLOPED. THUS  A RAILWAY IS OFTEN NOT LED 
 ON TOP OF HILLS, RATHER THROUGH THEM  IN 
 TUNNELS   (IF   THEY   ARE  LARGE),   OR 
            ARTIFICIAL CHASMS.            
                                          
 THERE WILL BE  TREES ON THE SIDE  OF THE 
 RAILS, BUT NOT TOO CLOSE, OR  THEY  WILL 
 BE  CUT DOWN  BY THE  RAILWAY  JANITORS. 
 THERE  WILL BE  PLAINS,  AND  BODIES  OF 
                  WATER.                  
                                          
 TRAINS GO  BY DAY AND  BY  NIGHT.  ALONG 
       THE WAY, THERE IS INFORMATION      
 SCATTERED, OFTEN  PUT  ON TOP OF  POLES, 
 TO BE INTERPRETED BY THE  TRAIN DRIVERS. 
 DIFFERENT  PARTS  OF  THE  RAILWAY  HAVE 
         DIFFERENT SPEED LIMITS.          
                                          
 SOMETIMES,  TRAINS HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT 
 FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN, FAR AWAY.  THIS 
 IS  SIGNALED BY  RED  OR  GREEN  LIGHTS. 
                                          
                                  
                                          
 MANY PEOPLE  FOLLOW THE RAILS  BY  FOOT. 
 OFTEN  THIS  PROVES  TO BE  THE  SHORTER 
 PATH  BETWEEN TWO  POINTS.  HOWEVER THIS 
 IS  FROWNED  UPON,  AND  VERY   IMPOLITE 
         TOWARD THE TRAIN DRIVERS!
